Rockin' At Midnight

by Robert Plant

on Honeydrippers, Volume One (1984), Nine Lives (2006)

Have you heard the news?
There's good rockin' at midnight
Oh, gonna hold my baby with all my might
What a wonderful time we had that night
Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight

Have you heard the news?
There's good rockin' at midnight
Oh, gonna hold my baby with all my might
What a wonderful time we had that night
Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight

Now, sweet Georgia Brown and sweet Lorraine
They got caught with Caledonia's man
Sioux City Sue, now, tore it all
Those fellas got drunk and they had a ball
Crying, "Hey, hey, good rockin' at midnight"

Wail two times

Now, I'll tell you all about how Deacon Jones
Got so high they had to take him home
Here's the news about Elder Brown
He stole all the chickens then he ran to town
Crying, "Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight"

Now, Caledonia got drunk and grinned like a pig
She fell down and she lost her wig
Sally Brown, she laughed and she got sick
And Caledonia got mad and grabbed a brick
Crying, "Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight"

Oh now, let's go to town
Oh yeah

Oh yeah, wanna tell you all about how Deacon Jones
Got so high, they had to take him home
Here's the news about Elder Brown
He stole all the chickens and he ran to town
Crying, "Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight"

Now-now-now, Caledonia got drunk and grinned like a pig
She fell down, lost her wig
Sally Brown, she laughed, she got sick
Caledonia got mad and grabbed a brick
Crying, "Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight"

We're gonna rock
We're gonna rock
A-gonna rock
A-gonna rock
We're gonna rock
We're gonna rock

Well yeah
We're gonna rock
We're gonna rock
We gonna rock
Ooh-hoo yeah, we're gonna rock
We're gonna rock
There's good rockin' at midnight, midnight, midnight, midnight, yeah-oh

Let's go out

Now, sweet Georgia Brown and sweet Lorraine
They got caught with Caledonia's man
Sioux City Sue, now, tore it all
Those girls got drunk and they had a ball
Crying, "Hey, hey, there's good rockin' at midnight"

We gonna rock
We gonna rock
Yes, we gonna rock
Now, now, now, we gonna rock
We gonna rock
Oooh yeah

Oooh yeah
Oooh yeah
